This is a new release of the original 1928 edition.

In England in the early 1600s, everyone was forced to join the Church of England. Young William Bradford and his friends believed they had every right to belong to whichever church they wanted. In the name of religious freedom, they fled to Holland, then sailed to America to start a new life. But the winter was harsh, and before a year passed, half the settlers had died. Yet, through hard work and strong faith, a tough group of Pilgrims did survive. Their belief in freedom of religion became an American ideal that still lives on today.

James Daugherty draws on the Pilgrims' own journals to give a fresh and moving account of their life and traditions, their quest for religious freedom, and the founding of one of our nation's most beloved holidays—Thanksgiving.

1928. Howard Roger Garis also wrote under the pen name of Victor Appleton for the Stratemeyer Syndicate. He was the writer of many novels in the Tom Swift series and other Stratemeyer series including Uncle Wiggily, Buddy Boy, and Dick Hamilton. Tuftoo is a marionette, a wooden doll with a smiling face and a suit of many-colored silk. He has a happy time of it traveling in a puppet show with kindly player-people and other marionettes like himself. When Tuftoo gets lost out of the big caravan and Molla and Dick find him, the story really begins. The children take to the little marionette from the first, and through him they come to play in the puppet show themselves. They learn to work the fascinating marionettes and have wonderful adventures traveling from town to town. In Tuftoo the Clown, Garis has written a charming story, one that gives boys and girls a truthful picture of life in a puppet show.
